Enterprise Architect – IT job in Netherlands

Your role:
As an Enterprise Architect you speak with infectious enthusiasm about IT and digitalization. You listen and think in suitable solutions and look for innovation. This, in combination with your strong information and problem analysis and structuring and advisory skills, make you a convincing and customer-oriented Enterprise Architect. You have an eye for the environment and the various interests of clients, customers, users and supervisors. You do not hesitate to make a conflict of interest explicit and ask relevant questions. You are always looking for opportunities to get people and organizations moving – and keep them moving. You like to talk to stakeholders to include everyone in this. In addition, you are a committed colleague who likes to actively contribute to our own community. Consider, for example, participation in professional groups, development of services and knowledge days.

You contribute to Eindhoven’s digital ambitions in various ways:

• You participate in change processes that transcend domains, in particular the aforementioned GIVE project. Here you give substance to the chosen strategy with an architecture. You give an integral place to elements such as security, privacy, ethically responsible handling of data and the relevant specific legal frameworks. You translate this into a concrete use of components, including those from the Common Ground portfolio.
• You ensure awareness, support and understanding of the architecture in the organization.
• You maintain a relevant network to promote the application and the quality of the architecture. This can be within the municipality, but also outside it, for example at the VNG, the 100,000+ municipalities, Brainport, etc.

Who do you do that with?
From the CIO Office you work directly with the various domain architects, the technical architect Municipality-wide and the program architect. In the domain-oriented approach, you work together with the information manager and the other disciplines of the CIO Office around organizational design, information security, privacy, process and data management. Together you help the service sectors realize their information plans. You also work together with the IT Architects in the Information Technology & Management sector, where much of the technical implementation takes place. Together with the CIO and clients, you agree on the decision-making to be followed to have your proposals placed on the agenda and realized. The portfolio manager is your partner in strategic execution.

This is what you bring with you:

• You have completed a university education and several years of work experience as a business or IT architect (or a comparable consultancy position such as Business Consultant). Have you gained other relevant experience? Then we would also like to get in touch with you;
• You have formed a picture of the organization, processes, information and frameworks of municipal services and the themes mentioned. You are eager to learn and quickly acquire new knowledge in this area;
• You understand the different architectural layers (business, information, application and infrastructure). Knowledge of ArchiMate for making architectural models is an advantage;
• You deal skillfully with the complexity of the assignments you work on. You can break these down into models and you are able to oversee the scale of a solution. You instinctively estimate what the relevant details are;
• You communicate skillfully, are convincing and you are able to act at different (organizational) levels.
